"Covert White Supremacy"

[Axtremus]

Seeing the phrase “racial hierarchy in mathematics,” I googled it just out of curiosity, and found that the results are mostly papers talking about “math education” rather than “math” itself. E.g., https://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2017/04/racist-math-education/524199/

If folks can be a little more careful to say “math education” instead of just “math”, the discussion can be more fruitful.

Right. So why does this lady make $110K instead of $40K?

Seems like that's around the average salary for that school district - its around Sudbury, in northern Ontario. Population about 125k, About 1.1% black, btw.

In this country it is not at all about Blacks. It is all about Aboriginals - especially in northern Ontario.

She’s got the whitest name ever devised.

I find it a hoot that she's lambasting white supremacy in a district that's 98% white.

C'mon down, sugar booger, to districts that are 60/40, 50/50 and majority minority

majority minority

Whatever the hell that mean, LOL.

That's a district, etc., where a usual minority has become a majority.

Some very interesting districts. Watch how they vote, allocate funds and treat the "minorities" in their district.

Care to expand on that a little, with citations if possible? I have a sneaking suspicion they aren't too charitable.

My rule .. I stop reading at the “She/her” pronouns.

A good practice. "The crazy" barely gets a toe in, and you slam the freaking door shut.

Well done, @blondie !

Come up with the answer you want, then develop the proof. It’s simple non-colonialization math!

Alternative math. It fits with the times.

As I learned during my stint in academia: first draw your curve, then plot your points.

Politicians on the other hand start with a single data point, and use it to plot a 3-dimensional plane.

While I don't love politicians, without them, nothing gets done.

Sadly.
